I've tried suggestions from many other threads that haven't worked.

Using:

NTSC-U Wii (4.3U)

IOS 249 - d2x v10 beta 53 (56)

IOS 250 - d2x v10 beta 53 (57)

I've tried using v8 and beta 52 with no success. I used to be able to use my 64 GB flash drive to play game just fine. The only thing I did was reformat the flash for a boot on another computer and then eventually I formatted it back to Fat32. The USB loader picks up everything just fine, I just can't play anything. I've tried loading games through both 249 and 250 as well.

USB Loader GX - Black Screen (Wii Frozen)

WiiFlow - Error in Illegible Text

I've tried CFG loader but it freezes when I open it. Perhaps I have to wait several minutes?

Even though I probably won't get a response soon enough, it's kinda urgent since I'm going on vacation tomorrow and I'm trying to get some games on my Wii so I can use it there.

1. don't use r53, overwrite your 2 IOS slot with v10r52 or v8 using the same bases (56 and 57)

2. flash are known for having issues, but you said it worked fine until you format it.
I think you found your problem ! you probably formatted it in a wrong format.
try reformatting it, try changing the partition type (MBR or GPT) to force a table reset.


Maybe the issue is the partition order, or type.
you can refresh the partition type in the loader :
USBGX > settings > HDD settings > Click on the first option to force a refresh of available partitions and their type.

maybe you had NTFS (you thought it was fat32?), and now it's FAT32 ? it might try to use NTFS library (because it remember it) on a FAT32 partition, making it crash.
or you now have a hidden partition?
or something related to partition anyway (partition table format, partition type, etc.)
your problem happened since you used it on your PC, so it's something related.


You can go to Device management on windows to display the device's info.
which partition table type (MBR or GPT), partition number and format.

I switched to 52 on both with lo changes. NFTS caused my games not to appear last time so I had to switch to Fat32 before.

that's not what I asked.

you didn't answer or provided any information I asked and expected.
Ok, so ... please, make screenshot of your device manager so I can see :
- Which Partition table your drive is using ?
- How many partition
- Which format



what I asked is :
FORCE switch to GPT
FORCE switch back to MBR
Delete ALL partitions
create only one partition, FAT32 32k/cluster

This way, I'm sure the MBR table info has been cleaned properly!
that's not because you already used FAT32 that it can't be the problem.


Without being sure you have a proper device, how do you expect me to help you ?
I don't want to start thinking about complicated settings and software possibilities when the problem is right from the start, because of wrong device format.
